Can confirm Jevons Paradox. But in a more environmentally friendly way.

Just took my house onto off-grid solar, yet my energy consumption now exceeds when I was on utility grid power.

Naturally we ration things when they're expensive. But now I don't feel the need to turn off the lights or appliances when I leave my home, and my EV driving has gone up knowing that "fuel" is essentially free from here on out. And to soak up excess solar, I run multiple computers and servers 24/7 with reckless abandon.

GamePass has awful choices of game, save or one two. Nobody wants to pay $35 a month for games (that sporadically disappear) which can be purchased outright at full retail price for $70.

Codex GPT-5.5 Xtra high is as good as Fable.

Not sure if that's because of the harness, but the results are as good, and it's half the price.

US can pull out and probably should.

The impetus for the blockade on the Strait goes away when the US pulls out. Even the UAE said as much as which is why they are currently trying to pass a UN Security Council Resolution stating as much and get the RoW to show enough teeth to get Iran to back down.

Fortunately, China just decided to fire most of their military leadership and replaced them with inexperienced, but loyal grunts.
